Embodiment
With reference to figure 2,3, electronic installation 100 of the present invention has housing 110, is located at display 120, keyboard unit 130 and touch sensing element 180 on the housing 110.Touch sensing element 180 is positioned at keyboard unit 130 belows, and keyboard unit 130 includes a plurality of enter keies 132, and its subscript is shown with English alphabet, numeral or symbol etc.In this embodiment, wherein said enter key 132 all is assembled on the same continuous plane.Keyboard unit 130 is a qwerty keyboard, and just the English alphabet on it is configured to the character position on the secundum legem qwerty keyboard and is indicated in respectively on the enter key 132.When enter key 132 is touched, can touch the touch sensing element 180 of its below and send signal, when different enter keies 132 was touched, touch sensing element 180 can be sent different signals.
With reference to figure 4, application program is unlocked and is performed by the processing unit 150 that is positioned at housing 110, this application program has user interface 410, this user interface 410 is presented on the display 120, but User Interface 410 includes the operational zone 414 of at least two display frames, and the frontier district 416 between adjacent operational zone 414.In addition, the relevant information of this application program, for example the border setting data of frontier district 416 then utilizes Another Application program or the burning program code (not shown) in firmware to obtain, and the data transfer of being obtained is given the driver element 160 of the keyboard unit 130 of position in housing 110; Or driver element 160 directly obtains the border setting data of the frontier district 416 of user interface 410, and do not transmit by other application programs.Then, 160 border setting datas according to the frontier district 416 of user interface 410 of driver element are formulated at least two induction zones 134 with keyboard unit 130, and described two induction zones 134 are corresponding with at least two operational zones 414 of user interface 410.It should be noted that the driver element 160 of keyboard unit 130 of the present invention can be the driver element of entity, formed by program code and have the driver that drives keypad function or both combinations.
With reference to figure 5a and 5b, change the position of frontier district 416 of user interface 410 as the user after, for example use mouse to move the position of certain frontier district 416 in the mode of towing (as the direction of arrow among the 5a figure), the border setting data of this frontier district 416 can pass to driver element 160 again, is changed the induction range of each induction zone 134 again by this driver element 160.In brief, the induction range of induction zone 134 can dynamically change along with the change of the frontier district 416 of user interface 410.
When the user wants by keyboard unit 130 operating application programs, can utilize pointer or finger to contact with induction zone 134, this moment, touch sensing element 180 sensed this contact, and send signal according to this contact, this signal can be sent to processing unit 150, and carries out action by processing unit 150 according to this signal on induction zone 134 pairing operational zones 414.Similarly, when if finger contacts with another induction zone 134, after touch sensing element 180 senses this contact, also can send other signal, 150 actions that can on induction zone 134 pairing operational zones 414, carry out other according to this signal of processing unit according to this contact.
For example, with reference to figure 6, when if the user thinks intactly to browse information on the picture in certain operational zone 414 that is presented on user interface 410, it can be pointed 470 and contact, make this contact continue this induction zone 134 of contact and the one section specific range that slides with these operational zone 414 pairing induction zones 134.In this way, the picture in this operational zone 414 can make hiding Info of other be apparent in the operational zone 414 towards moving in operational zone 414 in contrast to the direction of being slided.For example, when if the user thinks intactly to browse information in the intermediary operation district 414 that is presented on user interface 410, can with the finger 470 on the induction zone 134 of centre to lower slider, this action just moves down it as the vertical scroll bar that utilizes mouse action operational zone 414 (vertical scrollbar) 418, so that the picture in this operational zone 414 can scroll up and intactly information be presented.Similarly, if operational zone 414 (not shown) when having horizontal scroll axis, available finger slides to the right on these operational zone 414 pairing induction zones 134, pictures in this operational zone 414 can be rolled left and intactly information is presented.
In addition, with reference to figure 7a and 7b, if it is excessive so that can only partly be presented in the operational zone 414 time that the pictures in certain operational zone 414 include the data of image 420 and this image 420, the user can point it 470 and contact with these operational zone 414 pairing induction zones 134, makes this contact continue the described induction zone 134 of contact and the one section specific range that slides.In this way, the picture in the operational zone 414 can move in operational zone 414 towards the direction corresponding to described slip, makes that other hidden parts of image 420 are apparent in this operational zone 414.Above-mentioned action is equal to mouse carries out towing (drag) to image 420, allows image 420 move in this operational zone 414.
With reference to figure 8, its show according to of the present invention on electronic installation the process flow diagram of the method for operating application program.At first, application program is opened (step 510).Then, the program code in firmware obtains the border setting data (step 520) of the frontier district of described User Interface by Another Application program or burning.Then, again this border setting data is passed to the driver element (step 530) of keyboard unit.Then, driver element then according to this border setting data, is formulated at least two induction zones with keyboard unit, to correspond at least two operational zones (step 540) of user interface respectively.At last, the user utilizes its finger to contact with the induction zone of keyboard unit, to carry out corresponding action (step 550) in the operational zone of the pairing user interface of induction zone that is touched at this.
According to of the present invention on electronic installation the method for operating application program, the user need not utilize indicator device that the cursor on the display is moved between each operational zone of application program to and fro, only must sliding on keyboard unit, it is pointed, and can intactly browse the information that is presented in the operational zone.
Though the present invention is disclosed by above-mentioned preferred implementation, right described embodiment is not that any those skilled in the art can do various changes and modification without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention in order to qualification the present invention.Therefore protection scope of the present invention should be with being as the criterion that claims were defined.
